set vs otl, which is the most musical


Set and otl amps are almost opposites in terms of many aspects of circuit design. Which of the two designs is the most musical (define musical in your own terms as there is likely not to be a universal definition acceptable to all). Which do you prefer and why?

Excuse me for derailing the thread, but could someone answer with a simple yes or no...do the OTL's and their little tube armies run especially hot? Thanks for the response.
Thanks everyone for the info. We've previously had amps that heated the entire upstairs of our apartment, as well as running up the electricity bill. I think if we had more space, and a quieter AC system, I'd jump at the chance to hear the OTL's. The only one I've heard represents merely a toe dip into the pool of OTL's. Jax2 came through last year with his Berning MicroZOTL, and we ran it through our Klipschorns. Understandably, it's 1 watt didn't lend much weight to the music, but oh my did the vocals sound delicious.
